so a few nights ago im hanging around with a few friends, one who has a 97 civic with a B16, a friend with a twin turbo supra, and an M3. well this guy comes up to us and starts ripping on our civics with no idea of what we actually have. of course hes in a turbo PT Cruiser and his buddy has an SRT-4. they started talking and before we know it were lined up on a back street ready to go. to our surprise, when its engine to engine, before the Vtec and their turbo kick in, we slaughtered them. as soon as my Vtec kicked in, their turbo was useless becasue i was so far down the street from the pull of my engine. we ran about 5 or 6 times before they were to pissed off to run anymore. i beat the PT by almost 3 cars and the SRT by 2. their engines are said to be identical, but tuned differently. anyone know if thats 100% true?

yeah, they are the same motor. its actually because of the PT GT that we have the SRT-4. they wanted a fast version of the PT, and so they made a kickin motor, and then someone at Dodge decided that it might be fun in a souped up Neon. turns out the Neons the better of the two cars.

damn straight! Theres a guy around here thats got his DD eg hatch running low 11's, and hes been hurting feelings on the streets all summer long. The best was when the SRT-4 guy rolled up and started talking ****. They lined up, and when told to go, the civic just sat there for a little over a second as the neon ripped through first, the civic then gunned it and walked right past the neon with a big ol **** eatin' grin on his face, priceless...
